The SOFA scoring system is useful in predicting the clinical outcomes of critically ill patients. [8] According to an observational study at an Intensive Care Unit (ICU) in Belgium, the mortality rate is at least 50% when the score is increased, regardless of initial score, in the first 96 hours of admission, 27% to 35% if the score remains unchanged, and less than 27% if the score is reduced.

The PICO process (or framework) is a mnemonic used in evidence-based practice (and specifically evidence-based medicine) to frame and answer a clinical or health care related question, [1] though it is also argued that PICO "can be used universally for every scientific endeavour in any discipline with all study designs". [2]
In one study, 81% of children with active systemic symptoms had abnormal echocardiographic findings, and 36% of patients had an effusion or pericardial thickening. The majority of pericardial effusions don't cause any symptoms; they can only be identified by echocardiography and don't show any overt cardiomegaly or usual ECG abnormalities.
Establishing procedures, like having children raise their hands when they want to speak, is a type of classroom management technique. Classroom management is the process teachers use to ensure that classroom lessons run smoothly without disruptive behavior from students compromising the delivery of instruction.
